d.
To enable trigger outputs on the AUX I/O cable’s
SyncMASTER1
and
SyncMASTER2
connectors, click on the
SyncMASTER: ON
button.
When
SyncMASTER
is enabled, the output of the
SyncMASTER1
connector is
driven at the frequency specified by the
Internal Trigger Frequency
.
The
SyncMASTER2
frequency is also specified by the
Internal Trigger
Frequency
, but can be delayed from 0 ns to 6,553,500 ns, in 100 ns increments, by
configuring
SyncMASTER
2
Delay
appropriately.
NOTE:
The blue SyncMASTER1 and black SyncMASTER2 cables
are used to differentiate these output signals when they are
shown on the SuperSYNCHRO timing diagram.
e.
To drive an RF amplifier via the
User RF Out
connector on the back of the
PI-MAX4: 1024i-RF, click the
User RF Output ON
button.
Configure the following RF Output parameters as required:
• Output Frequency
• Output Amplitude
The
User RF Output
port on the back of the camera must be connected to a
standard RF 50 Ω load.
f.
Configure the following parameters:
• Modulation Duration
;
• Modulation Frequency
;
• Modulation Starting Phase
.
g.
Configure the following AUX Output Trigger parameters as required:
• AUX Output Delay
;
• AUX Output Width
.
4.
Configure the
Modulation Ending Phase
.
5.
Verify that the
I.I.T. Power
switch on the rear of the PI-MAX4: 1024i-RF is turned
ON
and that
Enable Intensifier
has been checked on the
Common Acquisition Settings
expander.
6.
When the experiment is ready, click on the
Acquire
button.
